This little snowflake was made with a love for all things winter. Handcrafted from solid sterling silver, it's like wearing a tiny piece of the season’s magic around your neck. No two snowflakes are alike, and this one is no exception. Perfect for those who appreciate the quiet beauty of winter and want a little reminder of that peaceful feeling all year round.

Snowflake Pendant // One of a Kind
♢ Solid argentium .935 silver (100% recycled) pendant and solid sterling silver .925 chain
♢ I love to use Argentium silver, it has a slightly higher fine silver content then traditional sterling (93.5% compared to sterling’s 92.5%) and it is sourced from recycled material (making it a great choice both ethically and environmentally.) Alloyed with hypo allergenic geranium it is cleaner for me to use in the studio (compared to traditional sterling which uses copper) by eliminating the use of certain chemicals.
♢ I created it by hand by forming and fusing together argentium silver using traditional goldsmithing tools. For this pendant I used a combination of forming tools like pliers and cutters, my jewellers torch, finishing tools like sanding sticks, tumbler (to harden the silver) and a to give it the final polish a buff at the polishing wheel. areas to create a beautiful contrast. The contrast between the shiny bright white polished surface and the dark harder to reach area is what sterling silver is famous for!
♢ The back has a little circle that is stamped with my MP registered trademark and .935 (for argentium sterling silver)
♢ The process of creating is slow and intentional, I use traditional metalsmithing tools and processes alongside modern ones to create all my pieces by hand. My heart goes into every single piece I design.
